I’d like to thank everyone on this thread that has helped answer one of more of my questions.

I did not know a single Linux command, nor how to configure Port Forwarding rules, or check if ports were opened successfully. Many of you came to my rescue - @Jamie @zes333 @fitz_fiat @Chucky Thank You!

I finally got round to posting my first article on my experience building and testing my very Virtual Node on a Mini PC running on Ubuntu.

Here is my Step-by-Step account of how I did it. I hope this post inspires others to take the plunge and run a virtual node to help expand and grow the Incognito network.
